Home, after a quite productive plane ride. Now a quick spot of cleaning, a quick load of laundry, and some Sunday evening laziness.

Oh, amazing. My late-2008 i Mac had gotten crazy slow lately. Spotted MacFUSE in system prefs & wondered, what's that doing there? +

Slowing my computer down ridiculously, is apparently what. -
Sat Nov 26 17:06:50 +0000 2011
Replying to @bigjondaniel
Nope. There was apparently an incompatibility between MacFUSE and Lion that poured molasses over the processors.
